The Australian Gazetteer service which is integrated into the Location Capture widget is currently offline. The service is being re-written to resolve a number of database issues. Until the new Australian Gazetteer service is online loading of Gazetteer features and searches through the Location Capture widget will timeout. ANDS has been advised that the development of the new service should be completed by middle to late February 2014.

As an interim solution the Australian Gazetteer integration has been removed from the latest version of the widget. To implement this fix please download the latest source code from the ANDS Developer Toolbox.

As a more robust long term solution, automated checks will be implemented into the widget to detect when the Gazetteer service is unavailable. These checks will be added to the widget in Release 12 scheduled for March 2014.
